I'm not sure how a blog entry like this can be taken seriously, but wow. Blaming diners for the political inactivism of North Carolinians is a bit absurd. Maybe if we didn't produce politicians on the National Stage (Edwards), who no one in his own state even liked, we'd get a bit more respect. And as far as diners, I doubt you'd truly find any better place for "heart of the people" diners than those you'd find in little towns across this state. All the famous BBQ road stops, famous hamburger and hot dog restaurants spread out across our state, they are most definitely there. It's just that NC isn't one of the "main" political states. Plus, they probably all think we're like Edwards ::shudders::
